Nicely Done!
Beautifully designed lighting kit! This is a well thought out kit and was relatively easy to install (relative to creating a do-it-yourself setup as I was originally thinking of doing). I especially like the cutoff switch disabling the lights on the second and third stages if they are attached to first stage.
Two caveats:
First, save yourself a lot of time by downloading the correct instructions (92176 - NASA Apollo Saturn V) rather than the “21309 - NASA Apollo Saturn V (discontinued)” instructions as I did. I incorrectly inferred that “discontinued” was Light My Bricks’s version of Lego’s “retired” not realizing they were referring to a discontinued Light My Bricks product. It wasn’t until I got to the second stage that I realized something had horribly gone wrong!
Second, on page 22, bottom right panel, with the instruction, “Push the bar in until it will not fall out on its own” I did not find that the engine cowling stayed securely attached. In the fully assembled model they were easily knocked off or fell easily off by themselves. A little bit of plumbers tape (wrapped 2 or three times around the end of the rod before insertion) solved this issue!
The quality of this Light My Bricks kit is such that I have ordered the lighting kits for the Space Shuttle, the International Space Station and the Lunar Lander.
Also, my order was promptly processed and delivery was very good.
I whole heartedly recommend their products.
